Brooke Notes: The Publisher’s Perspective

PHOTO BY MEGAN BLACK PHOTOGRAPHY

February is American Heart Month and we’re thrilled to help bring awareness to heart health once again this year by partnering with the American Heart Association Go Red for Women campaign. This is your public service announcement to go to the doctor and get your check up! While a healthy diet and exercise plan are wonderful for heart health, genetics play such a huge role in heart disease as well. Stay ahead of it by getting your annual check up and knowing your numbers. Learn more HERE!

This month we have quite possibly the most unique cover we’ve ever published and I couldn’t be more excited about it! This photo shoot was thoughtfully planned out and brought to life by Jon Eric Johnson of JEJ photos, Dr. Goldman and his fabulous team, and hair and makeup artist, Hannah Dezarn. We were honored to be a part of it. Attending cover shoots is one of my favorite parts of my job and I never get tired of seeing a vision come to life! Dr. Goldman is simply a pleasure to be around and you don’t have to be around him for long to know that he has a heart for helping others. Since 2010, he has been on countless mission trips to Guatemala, Ecuador, Vietnam and Peru to perform surgeries on young patients who suffer from facial deformities. Read all about Dr. Goldman, HUGS (Help Us Give Smiles), and all of the services that his team offers here.

We’re thrilled to be back with Girls’ Night Out this month! Join us at Twisted Pine on Thursday, February 9^th from 5pm until. Bring your best gals for a fun night out! Learn more here!

I can’t believe our 2^nd Annual Women on the Move Leadership Conference is happening next month! If you’ve already gotten your ticket—you are in for a treat! We have six amazing speakers lined up as well as a couple of fun, intentional networking activities.
